When Levi awoke, he was sitting on a plush couch, his muscles had relaxed into the nice fabric, and he found himself regretting sitting up. Pain surged through his head, a groan of pain escaping his lips. Cloth bandage had been half-ass-ly wrapped around his head, forcing his hair to stick out in weird angles.

"Fucking idiots." Levi muttered, readjusting the cloth to run under his hairline, not that he looked any more normal with white under the black strands of hair. The black stood out against the sterile white. Whoever had done this was a complete moron, he didn't need the bandages because his head didn't even bleed. What a waste.

A flash of green caused Levi's head to swim back to shore, he'd began drowning in his thoughts. His stoic expression remained, his steel eyes sweeping across the room. A familiar mop of messy chocolate hair caught Levi's attention. He could just barley catch their conversation.

"How about this, Eren?"

"No, it has to be light, but also intimidating. I'm not suppose to look like some emo in a candy shop."

Levi scowled at that remark. But his thoughts were overtaken with questions. Where is he? What is Eren doing? How'd he get here?

Levi continued to evaluate the scene, watching a boy with fuzzy blonde hair and long sideburns wrap a measuring tape around Eren's waist. He wrote something down before leaving the boy. A short, raven haired girl pranced back over, replacing the blonde boy, a white button-up blouse in her hands. She held it up to Eren's chest, nodding in approval before slipping off his current shirt to replace it with the blouse.

Eren stretched, seeing how the blouse hung loosely at his waist, but tucked nicely up his arms and wrapped around his wrists. It revealed his nice toned chest, and sharp collarbones. The collar was untucked, giving Eren more of a wild look. It suited him, to say the least.

Tight steel-grey denim hugged his legs, complete with common converse shoes. The white laces hidden somewhere under the tongue of the shoe. Eren looked a million bucks, though Levi refused to admit it aloud. For a screw-up like him, Levi was almost convinced it had taken magic or Cinderella's fairy godmother to make this stunt happen.

"Eren! You're on in just a few minutes, hurry up!" Eren and Levi's eyes shifted over to a tall man with scary eyes and a bald head, holding a stack of paper's over his head. He waved them around angrily, before disappearing behind the grey curtains. What was with this place and grey?

Eren jumped down from his little post surrounded with mirrors, smiling to the girl with pigtails, and raven hair. She gave him a quick thumbs up, ushering the boy towards the curtain. He barley caught the microphone tossed at him, inhaling in a rush to catch it. He took a deep breath before disappearing behind the curtains. Leaving Levi alone with people he didn't know, in a place he had no idea where it was.

You fucking piece of shit.

A chorus of cheers broke out in the room, causing Levi to jump, people had huddled around a large flat-screen TV, on it was a stage, like you'd see on those music performance shows. Eren appeared, making the crowd scream and cry at his arrival.

Who knew this brat was famous.

Eren jogged out onto stage, ignoring the blinding lights that shone on his face. He waved to the crowd, holding a microphone to his mouth. "Alright! Quiet down!" He hollered, waiting for the crowd to settle. He backed away, standing at the back of the stage. A deep percussion began playing, and the performance began.

' Everybody's always talking at me, everybody's trying to get in my head...'

I wanna listen to my own heart talking, I need to count on myself instead.'

Eren's microphone had been forgotten, his hands finding a way onto his ears, running up into his sloppy hair. A clap erupted from the crowd, Eren indulging the act by clapping himself, a smile ghosting his face as the camera perspectives changed.

'Did you ever... lose yourself to get what you want?

Did you ever.. get on a ride then wanna get off?

Did you ever... push away the ones you shoulda' held close?

Did you ever let go, did you ever not know?'

The beat hit full-blast, and Eren strut forward, enforcing excitement. The crowd went absolutely bat-shit, screaming and cheering.

'I'm not gunna stop, that's who I am!

I'll give it all I got, that is my plan!

Will I find what I lost? You know you can bet on it, bet on it, bet on it

bet on me!

I'm gunna make it right, that is the way!

To turn my life around, today is the day!

Am I the type of guy who means what I say?

Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it!'

Levi found himself entranced by Eren's performance, he executed the right stunts at the perfect time, Using the space the stage offered him.

'How will I know if there's a path worth taking? Should I question every move I make?

Thought I lost my heart and it's breaking, I don't wanna make the same mistake...'

The claps began again, Eren joining without hesitation.

'Did you ever doubt your dreams would ever come true?

Did you ever blame the ones that never blame you?

Don't you ever, try to live a lie again, I dont wanna win this game if I can't play it my way!'

The chorus began again, the camera's changed, showing Eren's flawless back as the shirt lifted with the quick movements he made. Levi hated to admit it, but the kid had a nice ass, and by nice, he meant damn fine ass.

As the chorus ended, the song hit a new verse, the exciting beat dropping, building up to the main climax.

'Ho, hold up.' Eren stopped mid-walk, holding up a hand. He turned to look at the side, catching the camera before looking back at the crowd. He began backing away, slowly, but surely.

'Give me room to think, we goin now!

Gotta work on my slang, gotta do my own thing!'

His leisurely backing-away paused, and Eren turned towards the camera. Levi found himself on the edge of his seat, waiting.

'It's no good at all, seeing yourself, and not recognize your face.' His emerald eyes glimmered, showing true acting behind the lyrics of his song.

'Out on my own, it's such a scary place...ooo~

The answers are all... inside of mee~

All I gotta do... is believe!'

The beat began picking up, and so did Eren, a bounce appeared in his step, as he strut forward, earning a loud cheer from his audience.

'Im not, gunna stop, not gunna stop 'til I get my shot.

'That's who I am, that's my plan will I end up on top?

You can bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on me!'

A grin appeared on his face, the camera switching to front and center. He stopped at the edge of the stage, skillfully dodging hands while evaluating his last moves.

'You can bet on me!' And like it had started, it ended. A loud cheer erupted from the room, making Levi cringe. He can't hear you, fucksticks.

Levi noticed the crowd shuffling over, anticipating the return of the star. Like a couple lionesses waiting for the perfect time to pursue their prey.

As Levi had predicted, as soon as that brown mop of hair and tan skin appeared, the group was smothering him to no end. Many compliments were thrown at the boy, and many strings of cusses were spewed back at the crew for their obsessive crowding.

Levi stumbled up off the comfortable couch, stretching his soar muscles. He stalked off towards the door with the sign labeled 'EXIT' though he knew he'd gotten here through Eren and the group. Speaking of which, where were they?

'Probably drunk off their asses.' Levi snorted, shoving the heavy-weight door aside to step out into the darkness. The only light was a small back-door light, and a few road-lights dotted across the small parking lot. Levi shuffled around in his pockets for his phone and cigarettes. Yes, he smoked.

3 missed calls from Erwin, 7 missed calls from Hangi. Shit. What in the ever-loving hell do they want? Levi fought off a headache, rubbing the bridge of his nose once his phone was back in his pocket.

The sound of the metal door screeching open brought Levi's attention to the boy standing there. Green eyes almost glowing in the dim light. "Uhh, Levi? You smoke?" Those were his first words? Not Need a ride? I'm sorry, or even a fucking explanation. No.

"Quick! Take him to the eye doctor! He cans see!" Levi spat, taking a long drag from the burning cigarette. Eren frowned upon his negative attitude, checking his pockets for something. He pulled out some keys, looking back at Levi.

"Uhm, wanna ride home?" Eren asked, sheepishly. "No, I was planning on walking." Levi shrugged sarcastically, glaring daggers at Eren. That's right, pay the price for dragging me here you little shit. Eren sighed, pointing to the truck parked in the corner under a street-light. "Well, sor-ry, for ruining your night." He grumbled, trudging towards the vehicle.

Levi followed closely, climbing in on the other side as soon as the doors were unlocked. He buckled up and waited for Eren to start the engine, watching as the boy shivered and fumbled with the keys in the dark. He rolled his eyes, pulling out his phone.

The phone was lucky to come with a flashlight, and he quicky flicked the screen up and turned it on, eliciting a flinch from Eren. "Thanks..." He muttered, finding the key and starting the engine. With everything okay, Levi sat back in his seat, trying to ignore the pounding headache he had from music and annoying 'friends' calling him way too fucking much.

"Look, Levi, I'm sorry for getting you all caught up in this, haha... It was my idea, the other's are back home, I should have sent you with them. You'd have been safer..." Eren apologized, looking down at his white knuckles clutching the steering wheel.

'What the fuck do you mean, brat?" Levi huffed, crossing his arms.

"Nothing, never mind, let's just go."

"Fine with me."

"Okay."
